  3. Let your child pick one page to read to someone else in the family.

Read-aloud15 min

Read-aloud: Snow White and Rose Red

  1. Read “Snow White and Rose Red” aloud. If your child asks to hear it again, say yes: hearing a story twice is how it sticks.
  2. This is an old tale, told for a long time. Afterward, ask: what did someone in the story learn?
